Apologies to go on about the ST prices but at Man City it is £725 for a family ticket of 1 parent and 2 children under 16. at Turf Moor it is £1045. Can anyone please try and justify why they think these prices can be correct? Personally I find it incredible that our chief Exec can stand there (Or sit) and say that he is charging premiership prices. Try and benchmark before making such statements, you are in danger of making the club look stupid.

Calm down McC. Comparing the clarets to the billionaire, PL winning arabs seems a little stretched don't you think? If it wasn't for FFP they could probably give their season tickets away! At the end of the day we are a unique club in the PL which means you can't compare us to the other 19 financially.

I am calm enough thanks Scamp but feel badly for those who are most affected by this. I had a season ticket for many years including last prem season and the following champ season. Family situation changed with new arrivals and my time was required elsewhere come the weekends.
To be honest last time round in the prem other than a few games I wasn't that impressed. Anelka, Zamora, Terry and Gerard (for a while) had decent games at the Turf, Anelka especially. Beating united being the obvious highlight, along with the first few months.
Thought our Championship prices were too high last season - this is Burnley were talking about, not sandbanks!
Hope the board back us more this time than they did last time"

Dialogue continues over Burnley deals

BURNLEY are continuing dialogue with Danny Ings and Kieran Trippier over potential new deals with the club.

Ings and Trippier both have only one year left on their current contracts and have been linked with interest from elsewhere after starring in the Clarets’ promotion season.

But Burnley are attempting to tie the duo to extended deals and discussions are continuing, although chief executive Lee Hoos is keen to keep private the details of how talks were progressing.

“I have dialogue with them all the time,” Hoos said. “But I would never do a contract negotiation in a public forum.”

Trippier has now jetted off on holiday, while Ings is preparing to represent England under 21s against Wales in Swansea on Monday.

After reported interest from elsewhere, Ings said: “Of course it is flattering to be linked with other clubs and I have seen some of the stuff in the papers and on Twitter. But I try and stay focused on what I am doing.

“You never know what is going to happen in football, but as it stands I am contracted at Burnley for another year and I am happy and looking forward to playing in the Premier League next season.”
